Dreame L40 Ultra

“Brands with good obstacle avoidance (assuming the models at least have an RGB camera): DJI, dreame, eufy, MOVA (a dreame subbrand), Narwal We’re going to filter these brands by your requirements. Brands that have antitangle brushes: all the brand I’ve mentioned earlier have antitangle main brushes of some kind on at least one model. Brands that are generally good all rounders when it comes to vacuum and mopping: dreame, eufy (e25/e28 and hopefully the S2), and MOVA. Eufy’s e25 is pretty good at its regular price. It uses the same principle as your curv’s brushes to detangle hair and it’s reported to work well. You’d also get solid eufy aftersales support. If you choose this model, ask eufy support to send the new water tank so it will not leak dirty water onto your floors. Dreame and MOVA have a lot of models and the antitangle technology differs between model so here’s what matters: Dreame’s TriCut Brush/MOVA’s EasyChop Brush Little blades are hidden in the brush roller which have combs just big enough for hair and fur to get into. When the brush spins it powers the blades to move like a razor and cuts off any hairs tangled in the combs. However, the models that use this single brush design are prone to ineffectively using the space in the dustbin, clogging the dustbin with fur in the middle while having empty space on the sides. Models with this brush: Literally any dreame or MOVA robot starting from the 10 series and newer that uses a single brush (the MOVA p20 ultra is an oddball exception). I’d recommend models that work with this brush as the most cost effective choice as models like the L40 ultra can be found at about 500-600 usd now in the US. It worked well with my heavily shedding long haired corgi. Dual antitangle rollers: Dreame’s HyperStream detangling DuoBrush and MOVA’s TroboWave DuoBrush Like the roborock QRevo Curv, it channels hair that is tangled on it to the narrow end where it’ll be free. However unlike the curv, the main difference is that the narrow end where the hair leaves is somewhat covered by the brush roller and the dual brushes are designed like the S8 Pro Ultra in a parallel configuration (II). The brush closer to the front is all TPU rubber for carpets and the brush further from the front is rubber and bristles angled for hair to slip to the narrow end. For homes with heavily shedding pets, models with this DuoBrush are my recommendation as it comes with a fur compression feature where it uses the airflow to push the fur to the end of the dustbin that is furthest from the dustbin’s opening so it can fully utilize the space. It’ll also be able to pack more fur into the dustbin. I was able to test this feature and it worked as advertised (which rarely happens). It worked well with my heavily shedding long haired corgi.
